I saw some VMs crashing when using a qemu-kvm build with
--enable-vnc-thread.

qemu-kvm-1.0[22646]: segfault at 0 ip 7fec1ca7ea0b sp
7fec19d056d0
error 6 in libz.so.1.2.3.3[7fec1ca75000+16000]

7f06df035748 error 6 in libc-2.11.1.so[7f06e09aa000+17a000]

I had no time to debug further. It seems to happen shortly after
migrating,
but thats uncertain. At least the segfault in libz seems to
give a hint to VNC since I cannot image of any other part of qemu-kvm
using
libz except for VNC server.

Thanks,

Hi Peter,
I found two patches on my git tree that I sent long ago but somehow
get lost on the mailing list. I rebased the tree but did not have the
time (yet) to test them.
http://git.iksaif.net/?p=qemu.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/wip
Feel free to try them. If QEMU segfault again, please send a full gdb
backtrace / valgrind trace / way to reproduce :).
Thanks,


I have seen no more crashes with these to patches applied. I would suggest
it would be good to push them to the master repository.

Thank you,
Peter


Ccing Alexander,

Ah, cool. Corentin, I think you're right now the closest thing we have to a 
maintainer for VNC. Could you please just send out a pull request for those?

hi all,

i suspect there is still a problem with the threaded vnc server. its 
just a guess, but we saw a resonable number of vms hanging in the
last weeks. hanging meaning the emulation is stopped and the qemu-kvm 
process does no longer react, not on monitor, not on vnc, not on qmp.
why i suspect the threaded vnc server is that in all cases we have 
analyzed this happened with an open vnc session and only on nodes with 
the threaded vnc server
enabled. it might also be the case that this happens at a resolution 
change. is there anything known or has someone an idea?


we are running qemu-kvm 1.0.1 with

  vnc: don't mess up with iohandlers in the vnc thread

  vnc: Limit r/w access to size of allocated memory

compiled in.

unfortunately, i was not yet able to reproduce this with a debugger 
attached.


thanks,
peter

Hi Corentin,

thanks for rebasing those patches. I remember that I have seen them the
last time I noticed (about 1 year ago) that the threaded VNC is crashing.
I'm on vacation this week, but I will test them next week
and let you know if I can force a crash with them applied. If not we should
consider to include them asap.

Hi Peter, any news on that ?
sorry, i had much trouble debugging nasty slow windows vm problems last 
2 weeks.

but its still on my list. i'll keep you all posted.

peter
